The ionisation constant of $$NH_4^+$$ in water is 5.6 $$\times$$ 10^-10 at 25^oC. The rate constant for the reaction of $$NH_4^+$$ and $$OH^-$$ to form NH₃ and H₂O at 25^oC is 3.4 $$\times$$ 10¹⁰ L mol^-1s^-1. Calculate the rate constant for proton transfer from water to NH₃.

At 380^oC, the half-life period for the first order decomposition of H₂O₂ is 360 min. Calculate the time required for 75% decomposition at 450^oC.

A first order reaction A $$\to$$ B, requires activation energy of 70 kJ mol^-1. When 20% solution of A was kept at 25^oC for 20 minutes, 25% decomposition tooks place. What will be the percentage decomposition in the same time in a 30% solution maintained at 40^oC? Assume that activation energy remains constant in this range of temperature.

The decomposition of N₂O₅ according to the equation:
2N₂O₅ (g) $$\to$$ 4NO₂(g) + O₂(g)
is a first order reaction. After 30 min. from the start of the decomposition in a closed vessel, the total pressure developed is found to be 284.5 mm of Hg and on complete decomposition, the total pressure is 584.5 mm of Hg. Calculate the rate constant of the reaction.
